Personally I think the risks of this combination are so high that it is a major mistake. If fact, you will probably end up with multiple revisions to take care of the problems created by this combination.
En bloc removal and oft can be done at the same time in many cases. If the skin is thi however, you run the risk of tissue damage if you try to do these at the same time and may be better off doing the lift at a second stage.
Hi,Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you. It isimportant to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your bestresource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, andconcerns. Having said that, it is fine to have implant removal lifts done at the sametime. It is a common procedure. There is no reason not to rebuild at the same.Cutting blood vessels occurs whether they are done at one surgery or two. Socan't think of a reason not to lift. See the link below for example of liftdone at the same time as the removal. Best wishes,Dr. Michael J. BrownNorthern Virginia Plastic Surgeon
Thank you for the question. Yes, this combination of surgery can be "dangerous" for some patients; for others, it can be done very safely. In other words, careful evaluation/individualization of each patient's case is important when it comes to providing each patient with a good recommendation/plan.

There are many factors to consider when doing enblock breast implant removal and breast lift. How big the implant, where is the implant, and how much of a lift do you need. Then must consider your own risks. Provided you are healthy breast implant removal and breast lift can be done at the same time but requires high degree of expertise and planning. If the conditions are not ideal then two surgeries is safer

The recovery varies from patient to patient. It depends on how involved the actual surgery may be. The return to normal activity will be judged on your progress.
Thank you for your question. "Otomy" typically means to make a hole in that part of the body, for example, a Gastrotomy would be making a hole in the stomach, (for say, a feeding tube). "Ectomy" means to take it out, (remove) that part of the body, or sections thereof, for example a G...
Good day! Surgeons have different protocols for post op for each patient and for each procedure. Some doctors would suggest you to do massage, but some don't. It is still best to ask your doctor about detailed information on the aftercare specifically designed for your needs and strictly follo...
Hello! Thank you for your question! It is a matter of surgeon preference as well as what is seen during your procedure that will determine whether or not a complete capsulectomy is performed. I have always favored a complete capsulectomy vía en bloc method. Although a more complex and ski...
En bloc removal of your breast implants may not be necessary. It would depend on what your goals are. If your implants are saline, there would not be any need to do an en bloc removal as the scar tissue/capsule around your implant will shrink and eventually be resorbed once the implant is...
